6 y ATTORNEY Reissued Get. 21, 1930 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE ARTHURG. BURDEN, OF WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, ASSIGNOR TO THE BORDENMETHOD INCORPORATED, A CGRPORATION OF DELAWARE PERMANRNT-HAIR-WAVINGAPPLIANCE I device for wrapping hair in an electric heating appliancefor curling operations.

This application is a continuation in part of my application Serial No.203,328, filed July 5, 1927, for hair waving appliance.

= One of the objects of my invention is to provide a construction ofwinding device for K hair waving appliances by which the hair of apatron may be wrapped within a heater in an improved manner by which apermanent wave may be imparted to the hair. Y

Another object of my invention is to provide a construction of winderfor back wrapping the hair within an electric heater during curlingoperation in such manner that a permanent wave may be imparted to thegair more nearly resembling natural wavy air.

Still another object of my invention is to provide a construction ofwinding device for hair wavers where the winding device is provided withan outwardly extending wall and slot with an arm extending integrallyfrom the wall for guiding the strands of hair in a flat ribbon-likeformation to a position by which the hair may be tightly wrapped andstretched upon a rod member within the heater, the hair being held innecessary position during the heating operation.

A further object of my invention resides in the construction of a winderhaving a substantially cylindrical upper portion and an outwardlyflared-lower portion terminating in an arm by which strands of hair maybe guided through a notch and back wrapped upon a rod member as thewinder is advanced axially with respect to the rod.

A still further object of my invention is to provide a winding deviceformed of heat resisting material enabling the strands of hair to bewrapped in the heated chamber and the strands controlled by a heatresisting winding member which does not tend to absorb and retain heatby reason of its close proximity to the side walls of the heater, butremains'sufiiciently cool so as not to over? heat and ruin the ends ordryer portions of the hair, allowing the strands of hair to be OriginalNo. 1,681,024, dated August 14, 1928, Serial No. 263,493, filed March21, 1928.

sition for wrapping the hair around the central rod member of theheater; Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view through the hair wrappingappliance; Fig. 3 is a side elevation partially broken away to show theinterior arrangement of the wrapped hair winder and protective coveringand device for maintaining the protective covering over the protectivewrapping in the hair waving appliance of my invention; Fig. 4 is anenlarged side elevation of the heat resisting winder for the hair wavingappliance of my invention; and Fig. 5 is a top plan View of the windershown in Fig. 4.

I have found that in order to properly impart waves to the hair. thehair should be back wrapped upon itself in the heating appliance andthen carefullyprotected from and conical shaped throughout anotherportion of its length with a substantially V shaped notch cut thereinand tapering to opposite walls of the device and terminating in an armforming means for guiding the hair to over wrapped or back wrappedposition upon the central retaining rod.

Referring to the drawings in more detail reference character 1designates the central rod member, or mandrel on which the hair is woundfor effecting a hair waving op eration, having a head 2 at one endthereof and secured to the heat resisting plate member 3 at the oppositeend thereof.

The plate member 3 is spaced from another heat resisting plate member lby heat resisting members 5. A soft pad such as felt 6 is carriedby theplate member 4. A plate member 7 is mounted for angular movement onplate member 3 and provides a support for the fibrous washer members 8which form a tight closure with respect to the heating chamber and serveto absorb condensation which might otherwise leak upon the head of apatronduring the hair curling operation. The strands of hair arerepresented at 9 as extending from the head of a patron through anaperture in pad 6, a corresponding aperture in plate at, a correspondingaperture in plate 3 and an aperture in plate 7 which may be aligned withthe other apertures or shifted with respect thereto for locking thestrands of hair in the heater chamber. The winder is representecl at 14:as having an upper cylindrical portion which may be serrated orroughened to permit the winder to be readily twisted by the fingers ofthe attendant. The lower portion of the winder is substantially conicalshaped as represented at 15. A substantially V shaped notch is providedin the conical shaped walls of the winder as represented at 16. Anintegrally extending arm 17 is provided at the lower extremity of thenotch 16 serving as a means of guiding the strands of hair 9 into thenotch 16 and upon the rod 1. The strands of hair 9 are shown curled uponthe rod at 10 in such a position that the next succeeding layer 11 isover wrapped upon the strands at 10. The strands of hair represented at12 are back wrapped upon the strands of hair already wrapped upon therod to a final position illustrated in Fig. 3. Thereafter, a protectivecloth strip 18 is Wrapped over the hair and maintained in place by meansof a guard constituted by two downwardly depending arms 19 and 22. Thesearms areformed from heat resisting material and are provided withgripping faces 20, A bridge 21 interconnects the heat resisting sidestrips .19 and '22 and embraces the rod 1. The

of practical andsucinexpenslve 1n its that metallic parts are not usedin the curl ing device. l

While I have described my invention in certain of its preferredembodiments, I desire that it be understood that modifications may bemade and that no limitations upon my invention are intended other thanare imposed by the scope of the appended claims.

lVhat I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of theUnited States is as follows:
